STOP STRUGGLING and START SMILING 😃 At Own the Wave (by BPS) we know it can be a real struggle to figure out the right water sports gear for you or your family – so we use our 30 years of water sports experience (for ourselves and our own kids) to GET IT RIGHT FOR YOU. After starting in a Kiwi garage we have now helped hundreds of thousands of customers 'get to their happy'. So get ready to ‘look like a legend’ and start making great memories straight out of the box.
EXPECT HAPPY FACES AND LIFELONG MEMORIES 🤗 We have designed our Beginners surfboard to be a better option for kids and teenagers learning up to around 150 pounds. A wider mid section and wider tail provides more stability making it easier to balance, stand up and learn, plus more volume in our board (38 litres) means more buoyancy, making paddling, catching and riding waves easier. And the three soft removeable fins (ready to install) means it’s safe to learn in shallow water.
NOT A SURFER YOURSELF BUT HAVE SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO LEARN? We have you covered. Just check out Blair’s video’s on this listing for a very simple list of ‘to do’s’ to get your learners up and riding in no time, plus some tips on helping them catch their first waves. For most learners it really can be fairly easy, and we share with you our years of experience to show you how - that’s the BPS difference.
SMILES STRAIGHT AWAY 👍🏻 Your Clawstrike board comes with everything you need to get going straight out of the box. A grippy deck surface plus 3 soft fins ready to be installed and a genuine 6-foot surf leash complete with rail saver to protect the board and keep it attached to the surfer. Add in a handy carry bag (with back pack straps) made from recycled plastics for sun protection and to make it easy to carry.
